    This resource was a perfect way to teach and discuss the importance of MLK day. I really liked the differentiated reading levels and this could be great for small reading groups. I will definitely use this next year!

    My school is named after Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., so we always go big to celebrate him. These activities were perfect for my 3rd graders to do in his honor!

    This is the perfect resource. It gives several different options for read alouds to teach about MLK and it has such a cute craft! My students loved this and were able to hang it up in the hall.

  7. Melissa Endicott –

    This was a great resource to support a group lesson for Martin Luther King Jr. Day, My group consists of multi-age, multi-ability students, so I’m always looking for materials that can be used whole-group but are also easy to differentiate. This resource was easy to prep and engaged my entire class.

    wonderful

  20. The RISE Room Co. –

    I love the three different reading level of passages but the questions are NOT differentiated…which is going to make it impossible for my lower kids who will no understand what the first question is even asking. Let alone the written response.

    I love the lexile levels! This is a great resource.
